LETTER: A plea for Mitt Romney's vote

I do not profess to know very much about politics — I don’t really care about Republican vs. Democrat.I’ve always been for the person who most closely aligned with what was important to me. But I am compelled to write this and share how I feel. When I saw that the Democratic Party dropped the words “God-given” from their platform that spoke volumes to me.

I am old fashioned. I believe in God, the Constitution of the United States of America, patriotism and my rights as an American. I am proud to be an American. We are free. Free to do, say, act and choose as we like — at least so far.I don’t want socialism in this country. Barack Hussein Obama is for socialism. He wants the government to have all the power — all the “say so.”

Remember, we came to America to start a new life. We fought hard for our freedoms and we won. I am afraid with Obama, my granddaughters may live to experience some of that freedom taken away.

Is Romney a good choice? He is getting my vote because he is not afraid to say he believes in God and he has no shadow over what his beliefs are. He, unlike Obama, has the kind of experience we need to dig us out of this economic mess Obama helped put us in. Every night, along with praying for America, I ask God to compel us Americans to vote to make Mitt Romney president.

If you are ambivalent as to who to vote for; if you usually don’t bother voting; if you like being American, I beg you to join me on Nov. 6 and vote for the America that we all know and love — that we remember from our childhood — the America that is not perfect, not flawless, but free and far better than any other country in this world.I implore you to make the time to go and vote for the one of the two that still believes in American Freedom — Mitt Romney.
